Spam (1) thing in that top bar?
mircea_popescu: there;'s no "displayed" though. there's All | Pending (4) | Approved |
Spam (15,875)
mircea_popescu: and also do me a favour and delete my
spam comment ; now it doesn't let me comment anymoar :)
mircea_popescu: $myrows = $wpdb->get_var('SELECT comment_ID FROM '.$wpdb->prefix.'comments WHERE comment_author_IP = "'.$_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"].'" and comment_approved = "
spam";');
phf: mircea_popescu: i think the anti-
spam instructions are missing bit for comment_post_time
mircea_popescu: ie, this specific bit is a load control measure more than actually
spam-killing per se.
mircea_popescu: way these work is, they collect form data once with spider, come back and
spam it for years afterwards.
mircea_popescu: you could alternatively take the thing out of wp-comments-post.php ; all it does is it prevents serious
spam operations from working
mircea_popescu: but to get this benefit, mark
spam as
spam rather than delete it.
mircea_popescu: which is why originally you'll get some
spam quarantined, but after a while it goes away. i see ~1-2 pieces / week atm.
mircea_popescu: phf it has a pretty powerful antispam mechanism. it spits on people who try to send pingbacks from other ips than the blog in question ; it quarantines people who try to add posts with links to anything other than your own blog ; and it auto-spams people it recognizes on the basis of the already marked as
spam.
BingoBoingo: See, if you
spam blocks all the time who needs to put
spam in the blocks!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform about 1/3 of all
spam is "zip" archives of all kinds.

☟︎ shinohai: well perhaps they shouldn't
spam treatises on bigger blocks to the blockchain, thereby reducing wasted space.

☟︎ BingoBoingo: Someone got crazy loading up hamlet.stanford.edu with vietnamese
spam links and putting them in
spam comments to qntra, so blacklisted
BingoBoingo: Domain khanacademy.org banned from Qntra comments due to egregious
spam mircea_popescu: it has TONS of life in it. notice how it works, intellectually, exactly on the same framework as
spam email.
mircea_popescu: i just got
spam with an... iso image attached. that's a new one o.O
BingoBoingo: In other news, Imgur.com is the latest popular shitsite whose urls will lead to a Qntra comment being auto ignored as
spam.
a111: Logged on 2016-05-12 13:13 mircea_popescu: o hey, paymium now joins bitstamp on the list of wanna-be bitcoin exchanges that email
spam.

spam.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i think a little bit of the whole
spam strategy is at work. they WANT the smart folks to lose interest early.
mircea_popescu: buncha fucktarded scammers running the concern troll angle, "oh, subscribe to our service to protect yourself from
spam"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i know for a fact people do. and yes it is exactly
spam, and people clikc that, too.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: (message to proberz : probe that is visible to the motherfucking naked eye , regardless of how otherwise original, is an insult to the intelligence of a shoe) << qntra was hit hard with a comment
spam cannon. Will take time to clean up approval que.
mircea_popescu: howling shit, jurov is handling his blog comment
spam via www:mechanize and browser sessions ?!
mircea_popescu: so wtf, derpy
spam includes flyer from eatery. it offers... SANDWICHS. and BEBIDAS. which are... coke and shit.
mircea_popescu: so, IF we start tagging things in chan, this is indistinguishable from good old
spam. (textual content of no textual intent).
adlai: meh, i
spam enough myself, no need to facilitate spamming by schroedinger's idiots.
massiro: First of all, Core-0.12 stops 0-fee tx relaying during
spam attacks.
massiro: And the
spam attack revealed the problem.

spam filtering turned into pretend-ai after its failure to filter
spam" means for your country : the next step is for most all the jobs that are still left to be replaced by this kind of ai - it's cheaper. so you go to the hair salon and you get a hairdo - 80% of the time. hey, accidents happen, here's a free coupon for another one. and

☟︎ mircea_popescu: in other news - something that appears as a legitimate outfit from rochester, new york ( thepremierpartners.com ) has apparently managed to lose control over its [email] servers, because they're now sending run of the mill "due bill.doc"
spam but from
http://dpaste.com/2MV15W2 it seems to be actually sent by them.
mircea_popescu: so you're going to try as a package first, then just the domain on a 2nd pass, and advertise this on forums - how many, which, do you have good standing accounts in any (which) or is this going to be just some drive-by
spam thing ?
jurov: also, just for lulz, got targeted
spam - invite to bid on foundationcoin.com
assbot: You rated user nubbins` on 30-Jun-2014, with a rating of -1, and supplied these additional notes: for the purpose of turning the
spam nozzle two clicks towards the off position, and in the interest of discovering whether a lord can be silenced or not.
nubbins`: shinohai what's that, a joke? spamming the chan with a video about
spam?
assbot: Successfully updated the rating for nubbins` from 2 to -1 with note: for the purpose of turning the
spam nozzle two clicks towards the off position, and in the interest of discovering whether a lord can be silenced or not
nubbins`: calling A1
spam was a stretch and not correct, but calling A1 anything other than the absolute lowest priority is unreasonable
nubbins`: how does a node operator distinguish between the 50,000
spam 0-fee tx's and bitbet's 0-fee tx?
sturles: There was a
spam attack, which stopped.
mircea_popescu: for that same money, "tmsr will fail because it won't be able to hire enough starbucks barristas and bitcoin will fail because it won't be able to get enough poor africans to
spam the blockchain with their irrelevant, unwelcome dust txn"
mircea_popescu: i guess. the problem still stands tho. all these dudes "hurt by feminism" are like the wolf complaining
spam cans broke his teeth.
BingoBoingo: appologies for spurious IP address, was in the
spam filter feed tube
phf: a gossip solution is to hermetically seal the network, but some nodes presumably still need to talk to elsewhere, i.e. not l1 or l2, those are the ones that still have to deal with
spam transactions
mircea_popescu: now i get chinese language viagra
spam referencing the putative sexual prowess of black people from africa.
